He invented doors!
CMC fnord!
Heck, my favourite example on this board, just because it’s so ridiculous and has a personal resonance for me, was ElvisL!ves’s casual claim that the 9/11 perps were safely based in Montreal. It didn’t matter in the least how much counter-evidence was brought to bear, his response was to call Canadians “smug”, and as I recall, his evidence was that two people peripheral to the hijacking had briefly lived in Montreal, though they’d left well before the attacks.
I remember at the time there were rumours that the hijackers had entered the U.S. from Canada, but I thought those had been thoroughly debunked.
Not everyone got the message.
Hey, you don’t have to tell me about it. When it comes to Dunning-Kruger, I am the man! I am more Dunning-Kruger than any of the rest of you put together.
You’re no match for the new meat, EdwinAmi in the Is Global Warming Falsifiable thread in GD. That moron is radiating D-K at Magiver* levels.
*Magiver demanded that the response to Benghazi should have been to drop unbriefed special forces on motorcycles into the city. He still thinks that for all I know. He also argued against the laws of physics for days, in the punch a monkey thread.
Luckily, we have others on this board who try to avoid dumb statements, by performing actual experiments with cardboard toilet paper tubes before making posts here. Scientific experiments banish dumbness!
Shoutouts to EdwinAmi for egregious examples of exactly this phenomenon. Like, super-egregious.
I miss the guy who disproved the Holocaust by BBQ’ing chickens in his backyard.
I kind of miss the proof of a government 9/11 conspiracy by using matchsticks and metal washers.
Excellent reply.
The guy argues pretty well, and seems smart enough, but his refusal to provide cites for his assertions render his arguments moot. Or perhaps he’s just another troll trying stir the shit, brah.
I know. I gotta try that “nuh uh, neener, neener” move myself.
Pretty easy to argue well when you pull numbers and strawmen out your ass. That thing’s gotta be sore as hell by now.
I missed that one. Linky? And was a recipe included?
I try to stay out of those threads, gotta think of my blood pressure as I creep up on 40. My inspiration was more along the lines of “How often can you pee without your urethra starting to leak?” (edited for comprehension) and “I thought guns like these were impossible, why aren’t they impossible, if they were real they’d be too heavy and have too large recoil, no I didn’t actually learn anything from the many replies in this thread, why do you ask?” But I’d hate to start naming names.
Yeah, kind of. Here’s a link to the post (user banned and thread closed), where he describes his “experiment”.
Pretty sure he’s not Hawaiian, either, despite all the “brah” nonsense.
That’s all right. We all know who you’re talking about. 
In America we confine the “super-ignorant” to an institution. Unfortunately that institution is Congress.
I’d like to miss the guy who disproved kiddie rape by fucking a toilet paper tube as a gedankeneksperiment, but he’s still around, sadly.
Simple answer, they took a good look at it and felt monkey was the better choice.
But then, it’s rumored that all they saw when they looked at it were Republicans.
